Don't Recycle

.....your newspapers anyways. Ok so I wanted to post something different today.

So today I ask anyone who reads this to please consider donating any newspapers you might want to recycle to an animal shelter where they will be put to good use.

I got offered a job at the Humane Society. I went into for my first day of work and realized, it just wasn't for me. I really need to get back into an actual vet clinic in order to have my multitasking scatterbrained needs met. The place is great, don't get me wrong, just not my thing.

BUT, being there reminded what a great need they, as does Animal Services and other animal shelters, have for donations!! Not money, but just your newspapers are GREATLY needed.

At the Society I went to they have to spay/neuter about 40-60 cats and dogs (and sometimes bunnies) per day. And every day they have to change the cages etc. for each animal. That's where your wonderful newspaper comes in handy.

And that does not include all of the animals out front that those looking to adopt see, these are the animals that haven't even been released to be adopted yet.

How many more are in the adoption center?

So please, don't recycle your old newspapers - please donate them to your local animal shelter!

For more info you can go to the Humane Society's home page, or look up the local Animal Services for your area - just type Animal Services - (your state here). Here's Utah's site.
